Consciously or unconsciously, the lack of media voices calling on Trump to resign as overwhelming evidence of corruption and treason accumulates is because this saga makes for captivating entertainment, massive ratings, and collective profit.
But they need to push against that impulse to juice impeachment for profit because Trump is going to try everything, Fox is going to try everything, and they’re going to both further the injuring of societal reality and inspire dangerous individuals to kill and maim.
There’s a vast number of people in this people who have been taught their whole lives that they might need to kill in case of a coup or corrupt takeover. Trump and Republicans signal to them constantly. They’re more than ready to see this as the occasion.
Evidence against Trump has passed the point of no return. The national media need to assert pressure on him to resign so we can avoid this story going to a place that risks lives. People have already died. More will if this crisis isn’t dismantled carefully.
